Gu Juexi returned home to find it rather quiet and deserted.
Gu Juexi narrowed his eyes as he scanned the house. Xixi was the only one to charge towards him and hug his thigh.
Gu Juexi scooped his daughter up and entered the house. “Where is Young Mistress?”
“She’s at the hospital,” Butler Kim replied.
At the hospital? Gu Juexi arched an eyebrow.
Gu Juexi stayed home to accompany his children and had dinner with them. Ye Xicheng made his contempt for Gu Juexi obvious. He must have irritated Mommy again.
Gu Juexi genuinely thought he hadn’t done anything wrong, so he completely ignored his son’s scathing glare.
In the hospital.
Gu Tianmu had woken up after the second treatment, but his body was still weak.
Wen Jie took care of him as he had his meal. The atmosphere was peaceful since none of them brought up the past.
Ye Yuwei entered the ward with her dinner in tow. Gu Tianmu gave her a scornful look which she ignored. His hatred for her was justifiable. She sat on a stool opposite the bed, keeping her distance from Gu Tianmu.
“Weiwei, why don’t you head home first? The children need your attention. I’ll stay here.”
“Mom, it’s okay, you go home first. I’ll wait for Butler Kim to take over from me.” She didn’t want to go home yet; she didn’t want to see Gu Juexi right now.
Wen Jie opened the food box and looked at the nutritious meal inside, then casually asked, “Did you and Juexi fight?”
“No,” Ye Yuwei lowered her head and mumbled in a downcast tone.
Gu Tianmu’s expression turned gloomy. He leaned back in the bed and looked at Ye Yuwei, but before he could speak, Wen Jie quickly interjected. “Go home. If you don’t want to see him, I’ll ask him to come over.”
Ye Yuwei lifted her head and recoiled as she saw Gu Tianmu’s displeased expression. Sensing her presence in the hospital might cause problems, she nodded at Wen Jie’s suggestion.
“What is she still doing here? She’s from the Ye family!”
As soon as Ye Yuwei stepped out the door, she heard Gu Tianmu’s angry voice and froze for a moment. Slowly, she closed the door.
“Hasn’t the Ye family done enough damage to us? Why do you still keep her here?”
Ye Yuwei gazed at the floor and sat on a bench outside the room.
“Gu Tianmu.” Wen Jie looked at the man whose expression was darker than the night sky outside. “Why aren’t you blaming Wen Lan for this? She orchestrated the whole incident. Why do you blame Didi? She was just a child.”
“So that’s her excuse for all the mistakes she made? She was just a child?” Gu Tianmu’s voice grew frigid.
Wen Jie sneered, “Don’t forget, the woman you loved the most started it. Did it ever occur to you that you hate the wrong person?”
“I—” Gu Tianmu clenched his fists tightly as he gazed at the woman who had got to her feet agitatedly. His wound had opened slightly because he was clenching his fists too hard. “Nothing happened between me and Wen Lan, how many times do I have to tell you?”
“Then I’ll also tell you that you have no right to blame it all on Ye Di, and I don’t want to hear you blame Yuwei for this incident. It’s true that you are the most innocent in this, but you are the root cause,” Wen Jie exclaimed in a grave voice, then turned and left.
“Why do you defend the woman who hurt you?” Gu Tianmu growled.
Wen Jie stopped, her hand gripping the door handle. “None of you know her. As outsiders, no one has the right to judge her.”
Wen Jie opened the door and walked out.
“Weiwei—” Wen Jie was startled when she saw Ye Yuwei, who had gotten to her feet.
